Northern Hawks won five of six contests, outscoring the Falcons 27-18

“Definitely their speed and tenaciousness,” said Northern Hawks coach Frank Filice, when asked about the challenges of playing the Falcons. “They are a hard-working team and are constantly pressuring you when you have the puck. They have some great leaders with their veteran guys that can easily win a game or series.”

“As long as we stick to what gives us success, which includes being strong and disciplined defensively, we feel we should be able to compete with them.”

“They’re a hard nose team that knows how to find ways to win and they did it to us both playoff runs the last two seasons,” noted Falcons Head Coach Mario Filane. “It felt great beating them twice in the Central Canada Cup for a berth in the Championship Finals, but it’s still on our minds losing that series last season for the league championship.”

“We have to believe. We have had stretches this season where we have felt like we’re the best team in the league. We’ve also had moments where we feel we have let points and wins slip away from us. it will be key for our group to believe in ourselves as a team that can prove to many, but especially ourselves, that we can be the team to win it all.”
